About Recorders Of Deeds

How far back do Recorder of Deeds records go?

Typically, the records held by a Recorder of Deeds date back to the incorporation or formation of the county or local government. While all records are available in books or on microfilm, records included in computerized indexes and databases may be limited to more recent documents.

How can a name on a deed be changed, added, or deleted?

A name can only be altered on a deed by recording a new deed with the change. An existing deed cannot be modified. A new deed is usually prepared with the assistance of an attorney.

What is the cost of recording a deed?

The cost of recording a deed varies from one locality to the next. Typically, deed recording fees are based on the number of pages in the document, with a flat fee for the first page or two and an additional separate per page fee.
